I'm sorry, you are correct. I believe what i meant to say was that if you plan on losing weight, its best that you lose all or most of it before the tuck. i just assume everyone getting a tuck is in the same situation i was; back down to the ideal body weight for my height, with all this loose skin. i continued to lose weight after my tuck, and i can see where the skin can have the tendency to sag when i sit down and look at it. revisions may be in the near future to pull it even tighter for me. my main complaint was that i was never going to be able to wear a bikini again, and trying on clothes was hell because there are all these low rise jeans and pant styles that looked horrible on me. but i accomplished what i set out to do, i can now wear a bikini and i look just great in the low rise jeans and pants, so in my opinion, i've reached my goal. best of luck to you, and hopefully yours will be a speedy recovery!!
